Mar 19-20--Galaxies and Stars

Gearing up for spring break! Here is a quick recap

March 17-18 We used the Hubble Deep Field images to classify galaxies according to their shape, size and color. We worked in groups and found that sometimes it was very difficult to agree on just what shape that fuzzy blob of stars was!

March 19-20 We created a scaled model of the big dipper and reviewed light years, red giants and blue dwarf stars.

No homework over break! enjoy!
